Examen Final [Práctico]: "In Praise of Imagination"

IN PRAISE OF IMAGINATION

 
A woman in this country had in her possession – acquired when or where I do not know, though lawfully – a preserved human head. It was the tattooed head of a Maori warrior, and experts assigned it to the early 19th century. Anyway, the woman in our story apparently saw no difference between a human head and an inlaid escritoire, and sent the object to Bonham’s, the auctioneers, to sell for her. Bonham’s, for their part, made no demur, and prepared to offer one human head, in good condition, with tattoo, to the highest bidder at a forthcoming sale. Now read on.

 
M
any a ritual once thought perfectly normal has come to seem abhorrent, from cannibalism to burning witches. And yet there is in England a woman and a firm of auctioneers who between them are unable to see that they might be doing anything odd by trading in human heads. Maori leaders have called the impeding sale ‘a degrading and deeply offensive desecration’, and that strikes me as scoring very high marks for both succinctness and accuracy.

 
Let us examine the nature of this more closely. If a human head is to you a toy, an ornament, or another acquisition for your cabinet de voyeur, it does not mean that you are wicked, but it does mean that there is something missing in your make-up. Imagination is the missing ingredient. That Maori head once spoke; in a strange tongue, no doubt, but spoke. It kissed its wife; it got wet in the rain; it died and was severed from its shoulders. The body below the head was just as real; take its hand and feel the warmth of a living being. Imagination stirs, does it not?

 
You think these questions are pointless and childish? Then you are probably an auctioneer at Bonham’s or the owner of the controversial lot.

 
It is imagination that is dying out in the world. If imagination dies, it will make the world a desert. For imagination informs every culture; it is the blood of art, the marl of maturity, the guide-dog of ethics, the cornerstone of religions.

Ejercicio 4: "Monica and I"

by Rupert Christiansen, The Observer Magazine


Monica and I, we go way back. It hasn't always been easy, there have been a few screaming arguments -- I'm ashamed to admit that once or twice I've knocked her about a bit. It's the way her K jumps and one of her fractions sticks that drives me wild. I've never seen eye to eye with her about her blasted ribbon. But we're staying together, Monica and I: after all, we've been through a lot -- two books, reams of journalism, hundreds of  'Dear Sir' letters, another book on the way. We're partners, I suppose, and basically we understand each other. In my line of business, that means a lot.

Monica's other name is Olympia. She is a rather battered manual type-writer, of a no-nonsense, no-extras variety. Over the years of my bullying, she has weathered into a unique identity, her most intimate nooks and crannies clogged with dust and splattered with Tippex.

Ejercicio 3: "Atom"


An atom is the smallest particle that comprises a chemical element. An atom consists of an electron cloud that surrounds a dense nucleus. This nucleus contains positively charged protons and electrically neutral neutrons, whereas the surrounding cloud is made up of negatively charged electrons. When the number of protons in the nucleus equals the number of electrons, the atom is electrically neutral; otherwise it is an ion and has a net positive or negative charge. An atom is classified according to its number of protons and neutrons: the number of protons determines the chemical element and the number of neutrons determines the isotope of that element. The concept of the atom as an indivisible component of matter was first proposed by early Indian and Greek philosophers. In the 17th and 18th centuries, chemists provided a physical basis for this idea by showing that certain substances could not be further broken down by chemical methods. During the late 19th and the early 20th centuries, physicists discovered subatomic components and structure inside the atom, thereby demonstrating that the 'atom' was not indivisible. 

 More than 99.9% of an atom's mass is concentrated in the nucleus, with protons and neutrons having about equal mass. In atoms with too many or too few neutrons relative to the number of protons, the nucleus is unstable and subject to radioactive decay. The electrons surrounding the nucleus occupy a set of stable energy levels, or orbitals, and they can transition between these states by the absorption or emission of photons that match the energy differences between the levels. The electrons determine the chemical properties of an element, and strongly influence an atom's magnetic properties.

Ejercicio 2: "Good Omens"


"Eleven Years Ago"


              [...] Archbishop James Usher (1580-1656) published Annales Veteris et Novi Testamenti in 1654, which suggested that the Heaven and the Earth were created in 4004 B.C. One of his aides took the calculation further, and was able to announce triumphantly that the Earth was created on Sunday the 21st of October, 4004 B.C., at exactly 9:00 A.M., because God liked to get work done early in the morning while he was feeling fresh.
This too was incorrect. By almost a quarter of an hour.
             The whole business with the fossilized dinosaur skeletons was a joke the paleontologists haven't seen yet.
This proves two things:
              Firstly, that God moves in extremely mysterious, not to say circuitous ways. God does not play dice with the universe; He plays an ineffable game of His own devising, which might be compared, from the perspective of any of the other players,°°  to being involved in an obscure and complex version of poker in a pitch-dark room, with blank cards, for infinite stakes, with a Dealer who won't tell you the rules, and who smiles all the time.
Secondly, the Earth's a Libra.
             The astrological prediction for Libra in the "Your Stars Today" column of the Tadfield Advertiser, on the day this history begins, reads as follows:


LIBRA. September 24-October23.

You may be feeling run down and always in the same old daily round....
